KatanaMan Lite 602k

About this app:

Please note : This Lite version of KatanaMan is no longer being actively supported

KatanaMan connects to your Boss Katana guitar amplifier via a USB cable. It allows direct control of many of the ampâs extensive features. Amp models, boost types, effects devices as well as basic amp controls can be selected and set from your device (phone or tablet) to create your desired tone.

Tones can be saved on your device as âpatchesâ for later use, and subsequently re-l oaded into the amp with ease. The number of patches that can be saved on your device is limited only by the available storage.

Katana amplifier settings can be âtweakedâ and saved âon the flyâ making KatanaMan an ideal tool for the home guitarist, as well as practice sessions, studio work, on-stage performances etc.

Some of the effects are disabled in KatanaMan Lite - for the full range, and more features see KatanaMan Pro.

Connection Requirements:
In order to connect your phone or tablet to your Katana amplifier you will require:
- A Katana 100 amplifier (Katana 50 will also work but some features may not be available)
- A USB cable suited to your amplifier. See your ampâs documentation for details.
- An OTG cable adapter (assuming that your phone / tablet has a mini USB socket)
- Your Android device must support OTG / âHost Modeâ

Not all Android devices are capable of talking to the Katana amplifier.
